:Well, it's a controversy, so not everyone will refer to Birdo as female. I think it's female, but until we've figured this out, we should maybe just say "it" and sometimes just "Birdo". Fixitup thinks that Birdo is a male passing itself as a female, but I don't know it that's true. I think Birdo is male in Japan, and Birdo used to be male, but now it's female. Maybe we should have a vote on what gender to refer to it as. {{User:CrystalYoshi/sig}} 12:59, 7 June 2008 (EDT)

::I agree with having a vote, and the article of vivian has a similar problem now, it doesn't refer to her neither to male nor female. I personally think both of them are female. [[User:Javier12345|Javier12345]] 23:20, 8 June 2008 (EDT)

:::Solution? --> Let's put a notice at the opening of the article saying that Birdo is male in Japan and female outside of Japan (or whatever is the facts)... then, just as the Wiki uses American names for everything, we use American genders as well.  This doesn't mean that we remove any information, though. {{User:Stumpers/sig}} 23:27, 9 June 2008 (EDT)
